Nancy isn’t elected from Bumfuck, AK; she represents San Franciscans who will re-elect her as long as she wants to keep running. The villagers are confusing what they were once able to do in Presidential politics with the electoral politics of the House. They don’t have the power, and it frustrates them mightily.</p> There’s no way the Dems are going to let the Thugs choose their Speaker.

They want to ‘prove’ their policies worked and that will require some kind of disclosures from the CIA files.</p> Nah, let her talk.

It’s not as much a testament to unpreparedness as to the uselessness of the format.

I wish it had been Sestak. That guy would might have hauled off and drilled the chump.

More generally, acceptance of the premise of the question or the segment is the overriding problem.

Did Nancy? Didn’t Nancy? Truth is that anyone succumbing to that premise is already fucked.

Anyone from San Francisco must be gay or a “fag-hag”. That would also include Di-Fi! Of course this doesn’t explain how Dan White got elected, or that vitriolic talk radio lunatic Michael Savage-Weiner (grr!).</p> It’s the San Francisco mystique.
